Fruition Brewing - Watsonville

It's a nice place to go out with friends and enjoy a drink and food.

We miss Bryan!!When he was in charge of the kitchen the food was absolutely great!!The kitchen quality dropped to the floor!! The beer is great though.

Around 2018, I got an email regarding a Go Fund Me or Kickstarter campaign for Fruition. I didn’t know anything about them other than that they loved beer and wanted to offer something made with local, organic, sustainable ingredients. I ponied up my $100 and forgot about them.Perhaps a year later, their brewery was built and ready to serve. I believe my tier offered me one free crowler of beer a month for a year. I planned on enjoying that. And I did. Even when I missed months, whenever I came in, they still honored our agreement and I grew to love the little brewery that could.They offered more than just ten IPA’s and a few other styles. They offer maybe three IPA’s at most(and I am an IPA lover), but really sunk their teeth into a variety of offerings that relied on local organic fruit that demanded to be tried and honestly educated my palate and introduced me to a multitude of beer offerings I otherwise might not have tried.They offer a smattering of food you’d be hard pressed to find at other breweries such as oysters. There’s plenty of room inside and out. They are kid and pet friendly as long as everyone is well behaved. They have merchandise and a variety of take home offerings including hot sauces, canned beer, and higher end bottled beer offerings.It’s a bit of a drive from highway 1, but we’ll worth it.

Some of my favorite beer and a great atmosphere. The kind staff just makes it that much better.

Oysters, mushroom melt, and the liquid stuff. All yummy!!
